azuriteThis morning I woke up at 7:21 precisely because I thought a spider had landed on my face, and I promptly smacked myself in the eye. After I sorta-kinda woke up and searched my bed and face to find no spider guts, I went back to sleep... and apparently slept right through my alarm (or something, because it was still enabled when my roommate woke me up at 8:55, 5 minutes before I was supposed to be in class!).
Well, needless to say, I didn't make it to class on time for the quiz, and if you miss it, you miss it, tough cookies. Worse, I had to leave early because Prof. Blumenkrantz back at CSUN said that I could call him during his office hours (Wednesday, 6-7pm; that translates to Thursday, 10-11am here). So I called him as I said I would... but a) he doesn't have my file, b) he has people waiting to be advised IN PERSON... so can I call back tomorrow? At first, he said call back at 5pm his time, which is 9am MY time-- which means I have to be in class. I said that probably wasn't possible, so was 10am again fine?
...What have I gotten myself into? Blumenkrantz just said "call as close to 6 on the dot as possible" (probably because he doesn't normally have office hours on Thursday at that time, so he wants to get the hell out of school), which means I have to ask my teacher AGAIN if he'll let me leave early to call my teacher. Actually, even earlier than before, because if I have to call at 10am on the dot, I have to be BACK in my dorm room, in front of my computer when that clock changes. Is it worth it to get up an hour early just to go to class for 40 minutes? I have to let Nakagawa-sensei know SOMEHOW, though... (This is bad because I still have to turn in homework no matter what, but it's especially bad if I miss the lectures; I won't understand a lot if I just base everything from the lesson on the textbook. Asking questions and actually seeing the way sentences are constructed are the best ways to learn-- for me.)
And I have to eat SOMETHING now, because I'm both exhausted and starving.
